Chapter 599: Try Your Best to Spread Rumors

Jiang Xingchen's premonition was very accurate, at the beginning of April, the old man suddenly came with news that there was a sudden rainstorm in the south near the Dali Kingdom, and it rained for a day and a night, and there were flash floods in many places.

After the heavy rains, the clouds did not disperse, but accumulated more and more, and began to spread northward.

As soon as Jiang Xingchen saw the news, he knew that his worries were really going to come true, and while instructing the old man to continue to observe, he immediately asked Grandpa Fu to prepare to issue a supplement.

The Star Collar was really at full capacity this time, and the million-volume supplement was shipped to most of the territory in five days.

The influence of Xingchen Monthly is quite large, and people also think that as long as it is a supplement, it must be Xingchen Ling's launch of some interesting projects.

However, when people opened the supplement and looked at it, it was all a bit of a disappointment. However, there was only one news in the supplement, Xingchen Ling has developed and researched a new building material that can make the building stronger, and now the Heluo Ling Dam built by the Duan family is made of this material.

"I thought it was news, it turned out to be an advertisement for the new building materials they designed!

"Yes, is the Xingchen monthly going downhill, the March monthly has no content, and this was also for advertising...... It feels like a money scam!"

"That's not right, didn't you see that Heluo Ling was mentioned here, maybe it was through guò This method to correct the name of the Duan family, tell everyone, the Duan family didn't cut corners!"

"I estimate that correcting the name of the Duan family is only one aspect! The main thing is advertising, after the Lingxin of Heluo Territory came out, all major territories are building embankments. It is mentioned here that the Duan family also used this material to build the embankment, in order to attract more builders to buy it. ”

"Makes sense......"

Although there are some doubts about this supplement, it does not prevent people from making various speculations about its contents. But no matter how speculative. Everyone agreed that what Jiang Xingchen produced must not be wrong. At the same time, he also believes that this new building material is definitely not cheap, because Xingchen Ling produces high-end goods.

And with the launch of this issue of the monthly magazine, the Duan family incident has gradually fallen into the dust. It was picked up again. Whether it was the problem of Ling Xun being too big or the responsibility of the Duan family, the two sides debated again......

Helan collar. On the embankment on the bank of the Lancang River, many craftsmen are building the embankment.

A young man in the rear ran over with a supplement to the monthly magazine, stopped beside a middle-aged man, and handed the supplement over. said: "Xingchen Ling has researched new building materials. Why don't we buy it and give it a try?"

The middle-aged man took the supplement, opened it and looked at it, and sneered: "Hmph! They are justifying the name of the Duan family....... if we buy it, we won't tell everyone that the materials used by the Duan family are fine! Let's just say that this time is different from the last time, and it can't give the Duan family a chance to save their reputation!"

"I think we should buy some, if the effect of the new material is really the same as what is said in the monthly magazine......"

"Don't say it!" the middle-aged man interrupted the young man and said in a deep voice, "Just do what I say!"

The young man was stunned for a moment. With a sigh, he bowed and walked away......

A situation like Helan Ling. It happens on the embankments of almost every territory. The new building materials launched by Xingchen Ling are basically not cared for.

Three days later, Grandpa Fu frowned and found Jiang Xingchen, in the past three days, only Qi Yueling, Qingshanling, Hongyuan City, and the three collars in the east have been looking for Xingchen to negotiate the purchase of cement.

"Sir, this won't work, let's let the workshop reduce the production volume, we have too much cement inventory!" Grandpa Fu said.

"Why, no one buys it, right?" Jiang Xingchen asked.

"Yes!" Grandpa Fu nodded and hesitated: "Sir, since you want to help those territories, why don't you tell them directly, there is likely to be a large area of heavy rain!"

"This must not be published in the Star Realm, otherwise the Emperor will be in a hurry! Spreading rumors and creating chaos is unbearable for any ruler...... Even if the old man's news can be testified, at most it is only possible, and no one dares to guarantee that there will really be a flood! Even if there is, the emperor does not want the common people to know! Hey......

Grandpa Fu said in a low voice: "Is there no other way, we can only watch!"

"Of course not!" Jiang Xingchen shook his head: "At most, we can only remind the major lords." ”

"How do you remind you?" asked Grandpa Fu.

"Let our people who collect news spread it, remind them to use some means, and be careful not to be discovered!" Jiang Xingchen paused for a moment, and then said: "Don't worry about cement, it's the same if we keep it for our own underground facilities...... I've given them the opportunity, they don't want it themselves, so they can't blame us!"

"Okay, I'll do it!" Grandpa Fu replied and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Jiang Xingchen stopped him and said, "Write letters to the few territories that buy cement, remind them to speed up the construction of embankments, and at the same time pay attention to digging drainage canals to prevent waterlogging in the city...... Also, let's start shopping for supplies!"

After Grandpa Fu left, Jiang Xingchen sighed softly again. Two days ago, the old man came to the news again, the area of rain clouds increased very quickly, and on the way to the north, two torrential rains had fallen.

By now, Jiang Xingchen was almost certain that the rainstorm would cause disaster.

"This flood is in the spring planting season, and I don't know how big it will be. I'm afraid the empire will have a hard time this year...... I've done my best, and it seems that the focus of the coming year will shift to attracting foreign tourists and the Cursed Lands...... Fortunately, I have a demon Jiao in my hand, otherwise the number of tourists here will decrease dramatically, and it will be really difficult to feed so many people......"

At the same time, on the embankment of Heluo Ling, the Duan family's father and son frowned.

"Jiang Xingchen asked us to speed up the construction progress as much as possible and strive to complete the construction of the embankment by the end of April, what is going on?" Duan Tiezhu looked at the letter in his hand, a little surprised.

"I guess he's a little anxious, and he's trying his best to build underground pipelines!" Duan Qingshi said.

"But if we rush to work, our investment ......"

"It doesn't matter if you invest more, Jiang Xingchen's requirements, we must meet them!" Duan Qingshi said without doubt.

"Uh!" Duan Tiehammer was stunned when he heard this.

Duan Qingshi continued: "Although Jiang Xingchen spoke for us in the Xingchen Monthly, our Duan family's reputation has still suffered, and if we lose the construction of the Xingchen Territory, our life will not be easy...... Besides, we still need the exclusive agent of cement. ”

"However, Jiang Xingchen has already sold cement in the supplement, will he still act as an agent for us?" Duan Tiehammer asked.

"Of course it will, Jiang Xingchen is very trustworthy...... If the builders use the same materials as us, it is enough to show that the cement is good, and it also means that we will not use bad materials, which is good for our reputation!"

"Understood!" Duan Tiehammer nodded, and then turned around and went to the construction site!

As time went on, the weather became warmer and warmer, and the talk of the content of the supplement gradually heated up. Originally, everyone thought that Jiang Xingchen's newly researched building materials would be sought after.

Unexpectedly, there was news that only a few territories that had a good relationship with the Star Lord, and the builders bought the kind of thing called cement under the pressure of the lord, and the other territories didn't buy it.

"What's going on, is it because the price is too high, and those builders think it's too expensive to afford it!"

"No, if it's too high, how can the Duan family use it!"

"You are stupid, what does the Duan family have to do with Jiang Xingchen, don't you see that Xingchen Monthly is supporting the Duan family?"

"If it's not expensive, it's because the quality is not good, maybe this material is not as exaggerated as what is written in the supplement!"

"It's impossible, will there still be quality problems with the things produced by Xingchen Ling?"

In the midst of all the talk, news suddenly spread, saying that there would be a heavy rainstorm in the near future, which was likely to sweep through most of the empire.

No one knew that this news had started from the beginning, only that it had spread very quickly, and it had spread all over the streets and alleys in just a few days.

Of course, there are many people who do not believe in this rumor, and there are few who believe it.

"As soon as I heard it, it was, and it rained heavily, and it didn't rain for more than a month, okay!"

"That's it, what is the drought like now, where is the heavy rainstorm, I am worried about what to do if there is no rain after the food is loaded!"

"If there is a heavy rainstorm, I will thank him......"

"Don't believe me, I think it's possible. Don't you see that levees are being built everywhere right now?"

"I went, is it because of the flood control levees that were started in the major territories of Heluo Territory...... If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense, Sabi believes that there is a heavy rainstorm!"

"If this thing can be predicted, then he will become a god......."

And at the same time as this was being regarded as a rumor, another theory also emerged, saying that the news of the heavy rain was deliberately spread by the Star Leaders in order to push their new building materials out.

"It makes sense, it's really possible. Levees are being built everywhere, they say there are heavy rains, and it is after the introduction of new building materials......"

"Xingchen Ling wouldn't do such a thing, what is Jiang Xingchen's identity, and everyone knows that Xingchen Ling is not short of money, even if the building materials are not sold, they shouldn't care!"

"Xingchen Ling is not short of money, but this is a matter of face, when has the things launched by Xingchen Ling been treated so coldly!"

"You don't know, in fact, the purpose of Xingchen Ling is to let the major builders use the same material as the Duan family, so as to exonerate the Duan family...... To be honest, this new building material may not be as good as the one used now, and it can't be stopped even in the event of a major flood......" This remark suddenly popped up and immediately caused an uproar.

And at this time, the rainstorm also began to show its terrifying power. (To be continued......)
